The Rudawa Valley and the Kmita Rock
Who ever shall come here,
Brave on that day
Joy he may have;
But whoever comes here,
distressed on that day,
Peace he may have.
"Stanisław Kmita, an armed knight
Fighting with the Tatars, powerful with his sword
Towards Bonerówna he turned his heart
And from this rock he fell down the chasm in 1515
Today the inscription engraved in 1854 on the wall of the one of the most well-known Jurassic rocks near Krakow is totally unreadable. It is said that here the brave knight Kmita committed suicide by jumping on his horse from this rock down to the Rudawa River, after the father of his beloved Olympia Bonerówna, heir of Balice, had refused to grant Kmita his daughter's hand.
